2 Q4 2016 ATRIUM LJUNGBERG

NET SALES totalled SEK 2,299 million (SEK 2,468 m), of which rental income increased to SEK 2,150 million (SEK 2,122 m). Rental income in comparable portfolios increased by 3.5 per cent.

THE LETTING RATE was 93 per cent (94%), including project properties.

THE OPERATING SURPLUS from property management increased to SEK 1,458 million (SEK 1,450 m), an increase of 0.5 per cent. The increase is primarily the result of sold properties but also contributions from acquired properties, new lettings and renegotiations. The operating surplus margin is unchanged at 68 per cent (68%).

THE PROFIT BEFORE CHANGES IN VALUE increased to SEK 965 million (SEK 945 m).

THE UNREALISED CHANGE IN VALUE for properties increased to SEK 2,772 million (SEK 2,328 m) and is explained by the market’s lower yield require-ments and higher rents as a result of new lettings and renegotiations. Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives amounted to SEK –307 million (SEK 201 m) as market interest rates during the period declined on the terms covered by the derivatives.

THE NET PROFIT FOR THE YEAR totalled SEK 2,681 million (SEK 2,784 m), corresponding to SEK 20.13/share (SEK 20.89/share).

INVESTMENTS in Atrium Ljungberg’s own properties amounted to SEK 1,002 million (SEK 768 m).

ACQUISITION OF PROPERTIES amounted to SEK 1,461 million (SEK 872 m).

THE BOARD proposes a dividend of SEK 3.95/share (SEK 3.55/share).

THE 2017 PROFIT FORECAST before changes in value and tax is SEK 1,055 million.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE FOURTH QUARTER

Atrium Ljungberg concluded an agreement for acquisition of the property Fatburen 2 in Söder-hallarna, at Medborgarplatsen in Stockholm. The property houses a food hall, stores and offices with a total letting area of approximately 8,500 m2. The acquisition is conditional on a decision in the city council of the City of Stockholm.

An agreement was concluded with IBM Svenska AB for letting approximately 6,500 m2 of office space in the property Borgarfjord 3 in Kista – a property which was acquired in April 2016.

Atrium Ljungberg received the award “BREEAM project of the year” for the sustaina-bility work in Gränbystaden in Uppsala.

Monica Fallenius, new director of the business area Transaction and establishment and member of the company management was recruited.

Construction start of two residential projects in Gränbystaden, Gränby Entré buildings 2 and 3, with a total of approximately 130 apartments. In addition, reconstruction of Forumkvarteret in central Uppsala started.

This interim report has been prepared in Swedish and translated into English. In the event of any discrepancies between the Swedish and the translation, the former shall have precedence.

3Q4 2016 ATRIUM LJUNGBERG

CEO’S STATEMENT

strategy for our new residential initiative where the objective is to build approximately 300 apart-ments per year over the coming years. The great majority will be tenant-owned dwellings but we are of the opinion that it is also important to add rental dwellings to an area. The starting shot has been fired in Gränbystaden where we will construct a total of 450 rental and tenant-owned dwellings over the coming years close to Grän-bystaden shopping centre. Sickla is next in line.

NOTICEABLE SUSTAINABILITY WORK We have intensified our sustainability work with the aim of becoming the leader of sus-tainable urban development in the sector. Sustainability work is a natural part of our daily operations and is integrated into our strategies, where the housing initiative also is a key part. The work is appreciated by both tenants and municipalities. During the year we were also recognised through the award “BREEAM project of the year” for our sustain-ability work with Gränbystaden.

RESULTS AND FUTURE PROSPECTSWe are continuing to deliver stable results and exceed our forecast. A record-breaking property market with lower yield require-ments and several positive new lettings and renegotiations of lease contracts has contrib-uted to us appreciating the value of our prop-erties during 2016 by 9 per cent. Net letting amounted to SEK 128 million. We are delivering a slightly higher operat-ing surplus than last year but are still quite far from our growth target of 10 per cent. The reason is that in 2015 we made a large strate-gic sale of retail properties for approximately SEK 1.3 billion, which impacted the operating surplus for 2016. In addition, the investment rate during 2014 and 2015 has been lower than our target of SEK 1 billion per year. We are now increasing the pace by several pro-ject starts in 2017 with completion 2018–2019.

The acquisitions we conducted in 2016 will result in higher income for 2017. The forecast for profit before changes in value is SEK 1,055 million for 2017 in comparison to the result of SEK 965 million in 2016.

There is a lot to indicate that Sweden’s growth rate will be good in 2017 as well. Howev-er, irrespective of this we are a long-term player who has chosen to have strong key ratios. If the market slackens we have a strong balance sheet to rely on. Thus, irrespective of the econo-my we will be able to continue investment in new development projects.

PROJECT PORTFOLIO ACCELERATINGWe currently have an ongoing project portfolio with a remaining investment of just under SEK 2 billion. In 2017 we expect to start projects with a total investment volume of approximate-ly SEK 2 billion. The construction starts include retail, residentials and offices in both Gränby-staden and in Sickla as well as offices in Ha-gastaden. In addition to this, our project portfo-lio enables us to invest an additional SEK 9 billion within the land we own and the land al-locations which we possess. A significant pro-ject portfolio!

STRATEGY FOR RESIDENTIALS COMPLETEWe are continuing to create sustainable and vi-brant urban environments by combining differ-ent operations such as retail, culture, offices, service and education in the same place. For an urban environment to be vibrant, a supplement of residentials is an absolute necessity. There-fore, during the year we have developed a clear

“In 2017 we expect to start projects with a total investment volume of approximately SEK 2 billion. In addition to this, we have a significant project portfolio in which our new residential initiative is an important piece of the puzzle in order to build sustainable urban environments.”

SEVERAL IMPORTANT ACQUISITIONS During 2016 we conducted several important acquisitions with significant future opportuni-ties. By purchasing the second of the two prop-erties which comprise Söderhallarna in Stock-holm, we will own the entire Söderhallarna complex. There is vast potential here to further develop the food market and strengthen the cultural atmosphere at Medborgarplatsen. We now have good opportunities to create syner-gies, both in operation and in concept between both properties and develop the entire Söderh-allarna to an attractive meeting place. It fits in well with our strategy to build urban environ-ments with a mixed content in which we can af-fect the entirety. The deal was approved by the city council in February 2017. The acquisition of an office property worth one billion in Sundbyberg, the former choco-late factory, entails that we entered a new sub-sidiary market with vast growth potential. Sundbyberg is a dynamic municipality under-going strong development where the number of residents will increase significantly over the coming years. We hope for several business opportunities in Sundbyberg so that we can be a part of the municipality’s development in the future.

RATINGWe have recently received a rating from the credit rating agency Moody’s, which conducts an independent assessment of the company’s credit risk. We have been awarded the grade Baa2 with stable outlook, which entails in-vestment grade. In all likelihood this will fur-ther improve our opportunities to finance ourselves through the capital market at good conditions.

SWEDEN’S BEST WORKPLACEI am delighted that again in 2016 we were in-cluded in the list of Sweden’s best workplac-es. Our strong employer brand is also notice-able when we search for new employees. We get many good candidates and can recruit competent personnel who share our strong core values.

To conclude, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to our tenants and other stakeholders for good collaboration last year. I would also like to thank all employees for their strong drive and commitment which is important when we together are continuing to develop Atrium Ljungberg for the future!

Annica Ånäs, CEO

2016 was characterised by strong development and a high pace. We conducted several important acquisitions with significant future opportunities and over coming years we will further increase the investment rate. There is significant potential by means of our large project portfolio in which our new residential initiative is an important piece of the puzzle in order to build sustainable urban environments.

Sales Operating surplus and operating surplus margin

GROSS PROFIT/LOSSThe gross profit for the property management activities (the oper-ating surplus) increased to SEK 1,458 million (SEK 1,450 m), corre-sponding to 0.5 per cent. The increase is primarily the result of sold properties but also contributions from acquired properties, new lettings and renegotiations. During the fourth quarter the operating surplus has been charged with approximately SEK 10 million, of which the majority relates to compensation for delayed possession. The operating surplus margin is unchanged at 68 per cent (68%).

Contributions from acquired properties primarily relate to the properties Lundbyvassen 4:7 and Lundbyvassen 4:13 in Gothenburg which were taken into possession on 30 September 2015 and Borgar-fjord 3 in Kista which was taken into possession on 20 April 2016.

The gross profit for project and construction activities totalled SEK –12 million (SEK –26 m). Costs in connection with ongoing de-velopment projects that cannot be capitalised have been charged to profit/loss.

TL Bygg’s gross profit amounted to SEK 20 million (SEK 5 m). The results for last year were charged by acceleration costs in a construction contract that was carried out.

CENTRAL ADMINISTRATIONCentral administration comprises of costs for the company manage-ment as well as central support functions. The cost for the year amounted to SEK –97 million (SEK –76 m) and has been affected by costs in connection with changes in the company management as well as investments in certain central functions.

FINANCIAL INCOME AND EXPENSES Financial expenses for the year amounted to SEK –385 million (SEK –405 m), the expenses decreased despite higher interest-bearing liabilities. Financial income totalled SEK 1 million (SEK 2 m).

The average interest rate at the end of the year amounted to 2.3 per cent (2.9%). For more information, refer to the section on fi-nancing on page 12.

CHANGES IN VALUEUnrealised changes in the value of properties totalled SEK 2,772 million (SEK 2,328 m), an increase by 19.1 per cent. For more infor-mation, refer to the section on the property portfolio on page 8.

Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives totalled SEK –307 million (SEK –201 m) as a result of lower market interest rates.

TAXESThe current tax for the period totalled SEK –4 million (SEK –17 m) and has been affected by, among other things, tax deductible de-preciation and investments, and by loss carry-forwards from the previous year’s tax assessment.

The change in deferred tax amounts to SEK –751 million (SEK –630 m) and has primarily been impacted by deferred tax on unre-alised changes in the value of properties.

At the end of the period the Group’s accumulated fiscal deficit is es-timated at SEK 130 million (SEK 196 m), of which SEK 101 million (SEK 136 m) comprises the base of the Group’s deferred tax receivable.

RESULTSThe profit before changes in value increased to SEK 965 million (SEK 945 m).

Net profit for the period totalled SEK 2,681 million (SEK 2,784 m), which corresponds to SEK 20.13/share (SEK 20.89/share) and was primarily affected by unrealised changes in the value of derivatives.

PROFIT AND LOSS 1 OCTOBER–31 DECEMBERNet sales for the fourth quarter totalled SEK 588 million (SEK 638 m), of which rental income comprised SEK 553 million (SEK 511 m). Rental income has been impacted by additional rental income from acquired properties, new lettings and renegotiations, but also by the effect of sold properties. During the fourth quarter rental income has been impacted negatively by ongoing adaptation for occupancy or further extensions. During the fourth quarter no additional compensation for prema-ture vacating of premises was received (2). Property expenses to-talled SEK –211 million (SEK –185 m). During the fourth quarter the operating surplus has been charged with approximately SEK 10 mil-lion, of which the majority relates to compensation for delayed pos-session. Costs of central administration for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK –22 million (SEK –25 m). Financial expenses for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK –92 million (SEK –102 m). Unre-alised changes in the value of properties totalled SEK 1,483 million (SEK 928 m) and are primarily explained by the market’s lower yield requirements. Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives to-talled SEK 307 million (SEK 161 m) as a result of higher market in-terest rates for the periods covered by the derivatives. The current tax for the period totalled SEK 0 million (SEK 8 m). The profit before changes in value increased to SEK 228 million (SEK 227 m), corre-sponding to SEK 1.71/share (SEK 1.71/share).

NET LETTINGNet letting, i.e. newly agreed contracted annual rents less annual rents terminated due to clients vacating the premises, amounted to SEK 38 million (SEK –1 m) during the fourth quarter, and has primarily been impacted by a number of office lettings, among others to IBM Svenska AB for 6,500 m2 in Borgarfjord 3 in Kista. The time lag be-tween net letting and its effect on profit is assessed to be 6–9 months. During the year net letting totalled SEK 128 million (SEK 62 m), of which SEK 28 million (SEK 36 m) referred to project properties.

PROFIT FORECASTThe forecast profit before changes in value and tax for 2017 is SEK 1,055 million. The forecast profit after tax is SEK 822 million, corresponding to SEK 6.17/share. The forecast includes the property Fatburen 2. Future changes in value and any other future property acquisitions and sales of properties have not been taken into account in the forecast.

8 Q4 2016 ATRIUM LJUNGBERG

PROPERTY PORTFOLIOTHE PROPERTY MARKETThe Swedish property market continues to be strong with low vacan-cies and higher market rents. Continued large interest in property investments as a result of the low yield for other assets has resulted in that the market’s yield requirements have continued to decline.

According to Savills, the transaction volume in the Swedish property market during 2016 amounted to a record level of SEK 201 billion, 23 per cent higher than the top quotation of 2014.

OUR PROPERTY PORTFOLIOAtrium Ljungberg’s property portfolio consists of 50 properties locat-ed in Stockholm, Uppsala, Malmö and Gothenburg. Our portfolio, which mainly consists of retail and office properties, is made up of modern, attractive properties with a total letting area of 1,124,000 m2. In March the office and health care property Malmen 12 in central Malmö was acquired, totalling approximately 7,500 m2 of letting area. The acquisition took place through a share deal with an underlying property value of SEK 125 million. Possession took place in May. In April, the office property Borgarfjord 3 was acquired and tak-en into possession. It is located in Kista with 13,500 m2 of letting area. The acquisition took place through a share deal with an un-derlying property value of SEK 325 million. In July, the office property Eken 6 was acquired, located in Sund-byberg with 28,500 m2 of letting area. The acquisition took place through a share deal with an underlying property value of SEK 1,059 million. Possession took place in September. In November an agreement was concluded on acquiring Fatbu-ren 2, Söderhallarna in Stockholm. The acquisition is conditional on a decision in the city council and is therefor not included in the accounts.

CONTRACTED ANNUAL RENT AND LETTING RATEThe contracted annual rent at the turn of the year totalled SEK 2,208 million (SEK 2,054 m) and the rental value amounted to SEK 2,374 million (SEK 2,192 m). This gives a letting rate including pro-ject properties of 93 per cent (94%) and excluding project properties of 93 per cent (94). The EPRA vacancy rate is thus 7 per cent (6%).

The commercial lease contract portfolio is well-diversified and comprises 1,865 lease contracts (1,771), excluding residentials and

garage/parking. The average remaining term at the turn of the year was 3.7 years (3.4 years). The ten largest tenants comprise 21 per cent of the contracted annual rent.

During 2017, 11 per cent (21%) of the contracted annual rents will be subject to renegotiation. 94 per cent of contracted annual rent is regulated with an index clause linked to inflation. 28 per cent (29%) of the contracted annual rent has a sales-based rent where rent is regulated based on the tenant’s sales. The rental lev-els have primarily been secured through agreed minimum rents and sales premium in addition to the minimum rent and comprise 1 per cent (1%) of the contracted annual rent.

PROPERTY VALUESDuring 2016 we externally valued the equivalent of 44 per cent of the property portfolio's market value, of which 20 per cent was conducted during the fourth quarter. The valuations were carried out by Forum Fastighetsekonomi and Savills in accordance with the International Valuation Standards (IVS). The remaining properties were subject to an internal valuation with market rents, operating costs, vacancies and yield requirements quality assured by Forum Fastighetsekonomi.

The market valuation is based on analyses of completed proper-ty transactions for properties of a similar standard and in a similar location, in order to assess the market’s yield requirements. The valuation also entails cash flow calculations, with individual as-sessments of the earning capacity of each individual property. As-sumed rental levels in conjunction with contract expirations corre-spond to current market rent levels. Operating costs have been assessed on the basis of the company’s actual costs. Development rights have been valued based on an assessed market value per m2 of GFA for determined development rights in accordance with an approved detailed development plan or where the detailed develop-ment plan is assessed to enter into force within the near future. Project properties are valued on the basis of completed projects, less remaining investments. A risk surcharge is added to the yield requirement on the basis of the current phase of the project.

The unrealised change in value during the period amounted to SEK 2,772 million (SEK 2,328 m) and is explained by the market’s lower yield requirements and higher rents as a result of new let-tings and renegotiations. Development rights have increased by SEK 334 million (–), largely due to several residential development rights assessed as entering into force within the near future.

ONGOING PROJECTSIn 2016, we invested SEK 1,002 million in our own properties, of which SEK 509 million was in project properties. The investments in project properties mainly refer to Northern Gränbystaden and Sickla Front II. Other investments primarily refer to major inter-nal renovation of the Gränbystaden shopping centre and Mobilia, as well as tenant-specific adaptations in our properties in Gothen-burg, Liljeholmen and Hagastaden. The remaining investment vol-ume for ongoing project properties amounted to approximately SEK 1,690 million at the turn of the year.

SICKLA FRONT II – STOCKHOLMThe construction of two office buildings and a parking garage on Ud-dvägen in Sickla is proceeding according to plan. Here we are creat-ing an urban district for large and small office businesses which links together Hammarby Sjöstad with Sickla. On the ground floor we are planning for public activities such as restaurants and a gym. The extension of Tvärbanan cross-town light rail link, which will be put into service during the second half of 2017, will run past our new district on the way to nearby Sickla station. The project Sickla Front II covers approximately 25,000 m2 of let-ting office area in total and 14,000 m2 GFA for parking. Occupancy by the Swedish National Courts Administration, which will become a significant tenant in one of the new buildings, is expected to take place during the second quarter of 2018.

GRÄNBYSTADEN – UPPSALAOur long-term work with Gränbystaden is continuing with full in-tensity. New builds and extensions are continuing at both Gränby-staden’s northern area alongside the E4 and by Gränbystaden Gal-leria (formerly Gränby Centrum). In Northern Gränbystaden we completed three buildings for stores, restaurants and activities during the second quarter of 2016 and at the end of 2016 and start of 2017 we commenced the construction of two more buildings in the area. Among other businesses, Elon will open here during the autumn of 2017 and Jula, Jysk and Rusta during the au-tumn of 2018. When these two projects have been completed, Northern Gränbystaden will cover a total letting area of 31,000 m2.

Gränby Entré buildings 1, 2 and 3 – Construction of two residential buildings with approximately 60 and 70 rental apartments respectively

as well as business premises on the bottom floor is taking place close to Gränbystaden Galleria. Occupancy is expected to take place during the autumn of 2017 and by the turn of the year 2018/2019. The buildings will be certified in accordance with the Environmental Building level silver.

It has also been decided to construct a third residential building with roughly 70 more rental apartments with occupancy in the first quarter of 2019.

Gränbystaden, south garage – Next to Gränbystaden shopping centre, construction is ongoing of a parking garage with approxi-mately 300 underground parking spaces. The garage is expected to be completed in 2018.

FORUMKVARTERET – UPPSALAWe are managing major transformation work in Forumkvarteret in central Uppsala. Our aim for the district, which contains retail in the form of Forumgallerian as well as office premises and residentials, is to create a city centre district with a strong retail range combined with attractive office environments and residentials. In 2016 improvements to office premises and rental apartments were made and currently re-construction of the shopping centre is being conducted. Among other things, we are making space available and creating a clear internal concourse through the shopping centre. The ongoing projects in Fo-rumkvarteret are expected to be completed during the autumn of 2018.

POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTSOur existing project portfolio with future projects enables invest-ments corresponding to approximately SEK 11 billion. The increase in investment volume can be attributed to additional project areas as well as changed assumptions on investment costs. In terms of area, half of our project portfolio consists of residen-tials and half of offices, retail, education and hotel. The project port-folio is divided among all our areas where Sickla and Uppsala ac-count for approximately 70 per cent. The rate at which we can complete the projects depends on the market situation and the pro-gress made in the detailed development plan process.

POTENTIAL PROJECT STARTS 2017–2018We are planning several project starts during 2017–2018 which are covered by current detailed development plans and others depend on new detailed development plans.

Potential projects by premises type, m2 Potential projects by location, m2

In Sickla we expect to start extension of an old office property in 2017 for 12,000 m2 GFA for hotel and offices as well as a garage. We are planning to start reconstruction and extension by Järnvägsgatan of 14,500 m2 of GFA for retail and health care operations by the end of 2017. Both projects are covered by current detailed development plans.

In Sickla Galleria we are planning for an extension of approxi-mately 3,000 m2 GFA for retail and two floors for a parking garage with approximately 220 parking spaces. A new detailed develop-ment plan is expected to enter into force during 2017. In addition, detailed development plans are ongoing for residen-tials at Nobelberget, Kyrkviken and Gillevägen where we expect a complete detailed development plan for Nobelberget by the turn of the year 2017/2018. Detailed development plans are also ongoing for reconstruction and extension of the school Svindersviksskolan from the current 3,000 m2 to approximately 9,000 m2 GFA.

In Gränbystaden we want to create Uppsala’s second city cen-tre. In the northern part a retail area of 50,000 m2 GFA is being cre-ated to supplement the shopping centre’s offering. There is a com-plete detailed development plan and development is taking place in line with the letting work. Next to the galleria we are also planning for approximately 250 tenant-owned dwellings by the adjacent Gränbyparken. Construction of the first phase of tenant-owned dwellings is expected to take place in 2019.

We are also planning for a major reconstruction and extension project by the gallerias’s southern area. The project covers 11,700

m2 for retail, restaurants, culture and entertainment and is expected to start in 2017. In addition, detailed development plans are ongoing for the area just north of the galleria which can enable the development of addi-tional 27,000 m2 GFA for retail and 30,000 m2 GFA for parking.

In Hagastaden, in the centre of the emerging life science cluster, we have a land allocation with a development right of 32,000 m² GFA. Here, above the E4, we are planning to build Life City, a complete district for businesses, academia and society. Construction is expected to start at the end of 2017 with planned occupancy during the autumn of 2020.

In Mobilia in Malmö our aim is to create new construction and extension of approximately 16,500 m2 GFA for retail, residentials and cultural activities in the heart of the district as well as several restaurants in towards Mobilia’s square. The project is covered by current detailed development plans and construction is expected to start around the turn of the year 2017/2018.

In Barkarby in Järfälla, together with Järfälla municipality, work is ongoing to create BAS Barkarby, a regional meeting place for learning, businesses and culture. The detailed development plan for the area is expected to be adopted by the end of 2017. A deci-sion on environmental permits is expected to be made in the sum-mer of 2018 by the Land and Environmental Court. Construction of the first phase of BAS Barkarby is expected to start by the summer of 2018 at the earliest, with occupancy in the spring of 2021.

12 Q4 2016 ATRIUM LJUNGBERG

THE FINANCIAL MARKETRecovery of the global economy continues to be sluggish. The slug-gishness contributes to inflation in large parts of Europe being low-er than the inflation target over coming years, which indicates that the European central banks will continue with a low-interest policy.

The Swedish economy is continuing to develop positively. The pri-mary driving force is strong private consumption and higher invest-ments, among other things through increasing housing construc-tion. The National Institute of Economic Research predicts continued growth where exports and household consumption are the key drivers of growth. The GDP growth forecast of the National Institute of Economic Research for 2016 is 3.4 per cent, which indi-cates good continued growth. The forecast for 2017 is 2.2 per cent.

The variable interest rate, 3M Stibor, remains at a low level and was –0.59 per cent at the turn of the year, which is a decline by 0.30 percentage points during the year. The long-term interest rate in-creased during the fourth quarter after falling to the lowest level during August. The 10 year swap interest rate was 1.10 per cent at the turn of the year.

INTEREST-BEARING LIABILITIESAtrium Ljungberg meets its financing requirements through five Nordic banks and the capital market. The banks are Atrium Ljungberg’s biggest financiers, and bank loans accounted for 58 per cent of the total loan volume at the turn of the year. Inter-est-bearing liabilities at the end of the period amounted to SEK 15,095 million (SEK 13,261 m). During the fourth quarter, liabilities increased by SEK 148 million, which is primarily related to invest-ments in Atrium Ljungberg’s own properties. At period end, the average interest rate amounted to 2.3 per cent (2.9%). Including unutilised loan guarantees the average inter-est rate amounted to 2.4 per cent (2.9%). Unutilised loan guaran-tees in addition to loan guarantees which cover outstanding com-mercial papers amounted to SEK 550 million (SEK 650 m). The unutilised overdraft facility amounted to SEK 300 million (SEK 300 m). The average fixed interest term was 3.9 years (4.4 years) and the capital commitment term was 3.5 years (3.1 years). COLLATERALOur borrowing is largely secured by real estate mortgages. Of the interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 8,697 million (SEK 9,469 m) is se-cured by mortgage deeds and SEK 6,390 million (SEK 3,792) is un-secured.

DERIVATIVESAt the end of the period, the derivative portfolio comprised of SEK 9,125 million (SEK 8,411 m) in interest swaps, with maturity be-tween the years 2017–2029. In addition, there is SEK 900 million in forward-started swaps starting in 2017. The derivatives portfolio is valued at market rate in conjunction with every closing of the ac-counts and the change in value is reported via the Profit and Loss Statement. During final maturity, a derivative contract’s market val-ue has been entirely dissolved and the change in value over time has thereby not impacted shareholders’ equity. The unrealised change in the value of derivatives during the period totalled SEK –307 million (SEK 201 m) as market interest rates have fallen on the terms covered by the derivatives during the period. The deficit book value of the derivatives portfolio totalled SEK –909 million (SEK –621 m) at the end of the period.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOW

COMMENTS ON THE CASH FLOW STATEMENTThe cash flow from operating activities totalled SEK 949 million (SEK 1,006 m), corresponding to SEK 7.06/share (SEK 7.55/share). The lower cash flow during the period compared to the same period last year is mainly explained by a lower change in operating capital. SEK –2,435 million (SEK –1,535 m) in investment activities has been charged to the cash flow and refers to acquisitions of proper-ties and investments in Atrium Ljungberg’s own properties.

The cash flow within financing activities amounted to SEK 1,373 million (SEK 504 m) due to net borrowing and dividend paid. Available liquidity amounted to SEK 1,126 million (SEK 1,339 m) and comprised bank deposits of SEK 276 million (SEK 389 m), unu-tilised overdraft facilities of SEK 300 million (SEK 300 m) and unuti-lised lines of credit of SEK 550 million (SEK 650 m) in addition to credit facilities covering outstanding commercial papers.

OTHER INFORMATION

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITYOne of Atrium Ljungberg’s overall operational goals is Corporate Social Responsibility. We have defined four sustainability goals in this context. All our major new construction projects should be en-vironmentally certified, premises in accordance with BREEAM, res-identials in accordance with Environmental Building and the energy consumption per square metre should decrease by 20 per cent be-tween the years 2014 and 2021. By 2021, the proportion of green lease contracts is also to be 50 per cent of the contracted annual rent. Finally, we shall be one of Sweden’s best workplaces. The goals are monitored annuallyin our Annual Reports.

MARKET DEVELOPMENT, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORSAtrium Ljungberg’s property portfolio, with retail, offices and full-service environments, is primarily located in strong subsidiary

markets in the expanding regions Stockholm, Uppsala, Malmö and Gothenburg. The primary prioritised risk management areas, in light of both their complexity and size of the amounts involved, are letting, property valuation, project activities and financing. The company has good procedures for managing these risks. The com-pany also has a strong financial position with strong key ratios, such as a low gearing ratio and high interest coverage ratio.

Several tax investigations are ongoing, which is creating uncer-tainty and could mean higher taxes for the property sector in form of limitation of tax deduction related to interest expenses, in-creased title deeds costs and increased taxation on sales of prop-erties.

For further information on risks and uncertainty factors in gen-eral, please see Atrium Ljungberg’s 2015 Annual Report and the section entitled “Risks and risk management” on pages 97–101.

RETAIL SECTOR’S SALES TRENDAccording to the Swedish Retail Sales Index (DHI), total retail sales in Sweden increased by 3.3 per cent in 2016. The stores within our five largest retail hubs – Sickla, Farsta Centrum, Port 73, Gränby-staden and Mobilia – collectively reported a net sales increase of 4.0 per cent compared to last year.

SEASONAL EFFECTS The operating surplus is impacted by seasonal variations in operat-ing costs. Generally costs are higher during the first and last quar-ter of the year, primarily caused by higher costs of heating and property maintenance.

ONGOING DISPUTESOn 3 June Nacka District Court communicated its judgment in the dispute with Casco Adhesives AB (Akzo Nobel). The dispute refers to the revocation of a lease contract which was conducted in 2013 re-garding renting of premises in Sickla Front I, Nacka.

WHISTLEBLOWINGWe manage our company in a long-term and sustainable manner. It is therefore important that improprieties which affect Atrium Ljungberg and which may seriously injure our staff are highlighted, investigated and prevented in as early a stage as possible. We have therefore established a whistleblowing service through an external party. In this manner we can guarantee a system with highest se-crecy and total anonymity which makes it safe for our employees, customers and collaboration partners to submit a complaint. Com-plaints can be submitted on our website.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLESAtrium Ljungberg’s consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Ac-counts Act. The Parent Company applies Swedish Financial Report-ing Board’s recommendation, RFR2 Accounting for Legal Entities, and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The accounting principles ap-plied conform to those described in the 2015 Annual Report.

New and revised standards from IFRS and interpretations from IFRIC to be applied by the Group as of 1 January 2016 have had no effect on the Group’s results or financial position.

Valuation method for investment propertiesInvestment properties are valued at fair value in the Balance Sheet. The valuation took place in accordance with level 3 in the IFRS valua-tion hierarchy.

Valuation method for derivativesDerivatives (interest swap agreements) are valued at fair value in the Balance Sheet. Pursuant to the IFRS valuation hierarchy, the fair value of derivatives has been valued in accordance with level 2. This level means that the valuation is based on input data other than the listed prices, and which are observable for the asset or the liability, either directly or indirectly. The derivative agreements (IS-DA-agreements) include an option to net obligations in respect of the same counterparty.

Fair value interest-bearing liabilitiesAccording to the Balance Sheet, the Group’s reported interest-bear-ing liabilities total SEK 14,947 million (SEK 13,261 m) and their fair value totals SEK 14,991 million (SEK 13,318 m). The fair value calcu-lation is based on discounted estimated future cash flows. The dis-counting is effected on the basis of current market rates plus the relevant borrowing margin. The valuation is hereby conducted with IFRS valuation hierarchy level 2. Atrium Ljungberg is of the opinion, with regard to other financial assets and liabilities reported at ac-crued acquisition value, that the differences between book values and fair values are insignificant.

EPRAAs of 1 January 2015, Atrium Ljungberg reports EPRA EPS, EPRA NAV as well as EPRA NNNAV in accordance with the European Public Real Estate Association’s definitions.

For calculation of EPRA NNNAV (the triple net asset value), an estimated deferred tax of 4.0 per cent has been used for properties. The calculation of the tax rate is based on a discount rate of 3.0 per cent (real) and that the property portfolio is realised over 50 years, where 10 per cent of the properties are sold directly with a nominal tax rate of 22 per cent and that 90 per cent are sold indirectly through transfer of shares with a tax deduction for the buyer of 6 per cent.

Alternative Performance MeasuresAtrium Ljungberg applies the guidelines of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on Alternative Performance Meas-ures (APMs). The guidelines aim to make APMs in financial reports more comprehensible, reliable and comparable and thereby pro-mote their applicability.

According to these guidelines, an APM is a financial measure of historical or future profit performance, financial position, financial results or cash flows which are not defined or stated in applicable rules for financial reporting; IFRS and the Swedish Annual Ac-counts Act.

Reconciliation of APMs is available on Atrium Ljungberg’s web-site, www.al.se.

EVENTS AFTER THE CLOSING DAYAt the city council meeting of the City of Stockholm on 13 February, the sale of Fatburen 2 was decided in accordance with a previously communicated policy decision. In February Atrium Ljungberg was awarded a public investment grade rating of Baa2 with stable outlook from the credit rating agency Moody’s.

OUTLOOK FOR 2017Atrium Ljungberg’s conditions are good. The higher urbanisation and population growth continue to drive growth in the metropolitan regions, where we are established.

Changes in value and any other future property acquisitions and sales have not been taken into account in the fore-cast.

DIVIDEND Dividend payments shall correspond to at least 50 per cent of the profit before changes in value, after estimated tax, unless invest-ments or the company’s financial position otherwise justify a devia-tion from this policy. A dividend of SEK 3.95 per share (SEK 3.55/share) is proposed for the financial year, which corresponds to a divi-dend of SEK 69.9 per cent of the distributable profit (SEK 64.1/share) and a dividend yield of 2.8 per cent (2.9%).

BUSINESS MODELAtrium Ljungberg’s business model creates profitability and value growth, mostly through long-term property ownership, management and improve-ment, as well as through project development of properties. Our construction business also contributes to profitability, as do our property acquisitions and sales.

GOALSAtrium Ljungberg’s operations focus on growth in the operating surplus. This, together with a stable capital structure, generates excellent conditions for good growth in value. Our goals are divided into three areas:

PROFITABILITY AND GROWTH The operating net shall increase by 10% per annum, we shall invest SEK 1 billion each year in in-house projects, and the return on new build and extension projects shall be 20%. The dividend shall correspond to a minimum of 50% of the profit before changes in value, after nominal tax.

LONG-TERM STABILITYThe minimum equity/assets ratio shall be 30% and the inter-est coverage ratio shall be a multiple of 2.0.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITYAll major new builds are to be environmentally certified – business premises in accordance with BREEAM and residen-tial properties in accordance with the Sweden Green Building Council’s Environmental Building certification. Energy con-sumption per m² is to decrease by 20 % between 2014 and 2021. By 2021, the proportion of green lease contracts is to be 50% of the contracted annual rent. We shall be one of Sweden’s best workplaces.

STRATEGIES Focus on developing environments for retail and of-

fice operations and, where possible, add housing, service, culture and education.

Develop and improve properties and development rights.

Operate in strong subsidiary markets in large urban regions.

Be a significant player with large, unified units in each subsidiary market.

Our focus, in everything we do, shall be on our customers. Collaboration with custom-ers, suppliers, municipalities and other stakeholders should be close, long-term, stable and personal.

Conduct and manage the entire business process in-house using our in-house expertise.

The sustainability work should be inte-grated in the business strategy and should comprise an important compo-nent of our offering.

Have committed employees who are passionate about what we do.
